You are pretty spot on here Terry,
spectacular writing and original style; while the subject is (searching for the right word) ...sad. Sorry I was looking for a more specifically aimed word...can't find it.
You captured her pain though, so perfectly.
You put it out there, good job.

Even beyond domestic violence this piece seems to provide insight into the minds of many people who go about what are seemingly normal lives to the outside observer, but inside feel that a monster (which can take many forms) is always just moments away from destroying their world. Great Job!
